Alistair, Loren: I feel disadvantaged in this august company, so I turn my
keyboard over to me WIFE!  Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, HAHHHHH...
(Somehow the mechanical laugh does not translate well into email.)

Alas this anthropological footage of Dwile Flunking does tend to confuse
first time watchers into thinking "Trumpington�s Variation" has been
employed because of the angle of shooting.  While historians naturally
disagree, the locals, after sufficient swagging, will confess they follow
Crossmead�s Spiral Regulations, the subtle object of which is to
successfully girt with a Widdershins Crossmead above the third toss in a
stable formation to provide full cross-planar tunneling.   In advanced games
this occurs at quantum level which grants more tactical options then
employing a "Pettiplace," or the more deadly "Pettengale sweep."  As for
poor Fettiplace, his seminal match against by Mrs. Trellis in the VWDFC (VW
Dwile Flunking Classic [German title totally untranslatable]), when she was
allowed an unimpeded Euro/Colonial Straddle causing his defeat and
subsequent  defection to Suffolk.  His form has slumped since, then , but
whose hasn�t?
